[XperiaX] WLAN cannot be enabled [answered]
After updating SailfishOS to 2.2.0.29 on my XperiaX I cannot enable WLAN anymore.
I installed via the terminal like this: https://together.jolla.com/question/133600/how-to-update-sailfish-the-unofficial-way/ Updating via the GUI resulted in a phone that was stuck on a boot logo. I also found a ticket of someone else who ran in the same issue: https://together.jolla.com/question/185567/22029-xperia-x-does-not-start/
When I try to enable wifi via the menu nothing happens. I did some searching and try to enable wifi via the terminal:
connmanctl enable wifi
This returned an error:
Error wifi:"Method "SetProperty" with signature "sv" on interface "net.connman.Technology" doesn't exist
I guess the wifi driver is broken somehow. I have no clue how to get that fixed.
@Jozz
Possibly because 'connman' is not installed?, to find out, you can type this in terminal;
pkcon search name connman
and look to see if it installed or not, if not, install it and try again. You will also need to authorise the command with devel-su and your pw; so the command looks like this;devel-su connmanctl enable wifi
(enter - password - enter)Hope this helps.....

The second returns the same error as I posted. I forgot to mention that I already ran devel-su.
Jozz ( 2018-06-16 13:33:01 +0200 )editI downgraded the OS via the terminal, but that didn't solve the WLAN issue. Then I disabled all repositories from Openrepos and upgraded to 2.2.0.29 via the GUI with succes. Still the issue with WLAN is not solved. I did a search here at TJC again and found this question describing a similar problem: https://together.jolla.com/question/116139/20010-upgrade-failed-wlan-networking-broken-11930/
Then I did open the File Browser app. I enabled hidden folders. Then did a search on sbj-wlan and found 0 results.
Does anyone know what the version is that I need to install if I use Zypper like this:

Is there a way how to install the WLAN drivers? I don't mind using the terminal, but I don't know where to get the correct files.
